Express Building Permits for Social Housing: Speed Yes, But Who Oversees Quality?

Answer

Who checks the quality of social housing projects when permits are issued faster in Mallorca?

That responsibility should still lie with the usual planning and technical controls, even if the permit process is faster. The concern in Mallorca is that deadlines may tighten while staff levels stay the same, which can make careful supervision harder. Strong follow-up inspections are important so speed does not weaken standards.
